I would agree with that if not for the subtle difference between
fallocate unshare and the iomap implementation. fallocate unshare is
basically just a behavior modifier for how shared blocks are handled by
mode=0 preallocation, so AIUI it fully supports post-eof ranges. It can
extend the file size or leave it unchanged (based on whether KEEP_SIZE
is set) and preallocate beyond EOF.

IOW, it might be perfectly valid for a caller to run an fallocate
unshare across EOF that happens to unshare various shared blocks within
EOF, and then preallocate and extend the file size as part of the same
command. The functional responsibility just happens to be split between
iomap and the fs.
